Fake receipts

[mjs]

If you buy a bat, return the bat, and bat comes back as sent with a fake receipt, what would be a valid and fair offer to make things right?

 

[Ferrari1]

hahahaha your SOL!

how long did the bat last?

 

[mjs]

how long did the bat last?

couple of months....but waited almost the full year to send back

 

[MrNixter]

A NIW NR bat

 

[Triple7]

You are screwed. Proving that it is the same bat... Hard. Plus the CS reps have screwed people on legit receipts before too....so there is that

A NIW NR bat

this and nothing less

 

[addicted2bats]

$80.....obviously

 

[WarningTrakPowr]

Did you purchase it NIW from an authorized dealer?

 

[44oki]

Left nut or Obama phone.

 

[mjs]

stop overthinking it....my question is: Does the person who sold me the bat owe me anything because of the fake receipt...He said he believed it was valid

 

[johnny fitz]

What company. Who you deal with memberwise

 

[44oki]

Did you purchase it NIW from an authorized dealer?

From a guy who bought it from that

that's pretty tough call. the fake receipt is bull **** if you bought it thinking it was returnable. Im leaning towards nixter. But a full year and a few months would make it hard to determine how much use you got.

A NIW NR bat

still think if you bought it as a Returnable then it should be honored as such because of the fake.

stop overthinking it....my question is: Does the person who sold me the bat owe me anything because of the fake receipt...He said he believed it was valid

imo yes....

 

[mjs]

imo yes....

so what does that person owe?

 

[44oki]

The bat is still returnable, just need proper paperwork

 

[addicted2bats]

mjs.....dont forget to mention that you swung the bat on a day when the high was 44 and the low was 26 when it broke.......

If you bought a used bat with a "valid receipt" in someone elses name, then nothing is owed to you as every manufacturer says that is against their return policy.

If you bought a used bat and the seller gave you a "valid receipt" in your name and it came back as a fake receipt, nothing is owed to you.

If you bought a NIW bat from a seller, who led you to believe that he/she was an authorized dealer, then yes something is owed to you.

Receipts aren't supposed to be transferrable. That being said if the person bought a bat thinking it had a valid receipt and he could return it then he is due something back from the person who provided the invalid receipt. That amount is based on the value of the bat IMO. Somewhere between $20-50...

Technically this is the risk of buying used. Whether it's fake or not really is negated by the fact that we all know warranties aren't transferable. I'd say he took a risk in offering his word on the bat also. $20-40 bucks

 

[44oki]

so what does that person owe?

IMO $20. Would be the difference between a returnable bat with receipt vs without.

 

[Lucky34]

I would only expect a returnable bat if I bought it from an authorized dealer. If I bought a bat from somebody on here, I wouldn't expect them to lie about the bat, but I wouldn't expect it to be returnable at all.
That's just me though.

Do you believe the seller since he thought it was a valid receipt? Secondly, did the manufacture black list you for using a fake receipt? Depending on what happen with the fake receipt, the seller should offer something to make it right. I would offer 25% back as a refund for what you paid on bat.

 

[mjs]

OK. so far here is where we are at....you can't transfer receipts, but people do and that is o.k....And the amount due sounds fair at 20 dollars?

 

[Goosepimp]

stop overthinking it....my question is: Does the person who sold me the bat owe me anything because of the fake receipt...He said he believed it was valid

No buying a bat second hand used or new is a risk the buyer accepts when they send payment...

Stop buying used with receipt and keep the brick and mortar dealers in business... What is wrong with people these days...

What if said person really wasn't clear on the proper way to return a bat and receipt was legit...for someone else?

He should cover your shipping at least $10-15,,,,,then the difference between a receipted bat and one without. Usually $10-20 and then whatever pain and mental anguish you're seeking restitution for IMO.

 

[bamaboy1626]

you aren't owed anything.... unless you bought from an authorized delear your receipt was null and void in the first place.

oh, it isn't for me....it is for another thread....just wanting clarification....

Was the receipt actually fake or was the place that sold it just not an authorizdd retailer?
